OWS Field Installation
OWS Field Installation
This field installation manual provides instructions for installing the Strix OWS 2400 and OWS 3600 products
safely and is intended for trained technical professionals. You must read the Safety Warnings on page iii
before commencing with the installation.
Theory of Operation
The Strix Systems, Access/One® Network OWS provides up to 3 independent channels for 802.11g support
and 3 independent channels of 802.11a and 4.9 GHz (public safety) support through its external connections.
This configuration allows the installer to separate the client 802.11g traffic from the backhaul traffic which is
carried through the 802.11a channels.
As shipped from the factory, the OWS is self-configuring and self-healing. In addition, multiple configuration
options are possible and the installer should refer to the Access/One® Network User's Guide (part number
210-0007-01) for detailed information about these configurations.
Important Safety Information
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. All Strix
products, including the OWS, meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and ANSI
C95.1, 1991. The proper operation of this wireless device, according to the instructions found in this
manual and the associated Access/One® Network software User’s Guide, result in user exposure that is
substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
The following are guidelines to ensure safe operation of the Strix OWS product:
◗ Do not touch or move the antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
◗ Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very close to or touching any
exposed parts of the body—especially the face or eyes—while transmitting.
◗ Do not operate the OWS or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna (or a 50 ohm terminator) is
connected, otherwise the wireless module(s) may be damaged.
◗ Usage in specific environments:
– Do not operate any wireless equipment near unshielded blasting caps or in an explosive
environment.
– The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the constraints posed by the safety
directors or such environments.
– The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
– The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
◗ The Strix OWS must only be used with Strix-approved components and antennas, or equivalent.
OWS Field Installation
OWS Field Installation
Planning Your Installation
To ensure safe and durable wiring, the installation of the Strix OWS must follow the appropriate electrical and
building codes. Observe the National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, unless local codes in your area
take precedence over the NEC code.
Local Guidelines
The Strix OWS is a radio device and therefore susceptible to interference that can reduce throughput and
range. Follow these simple guidelines to optimize product performance:
◗ Install the OWS in an area where trees, buildings, and large steel structures do not obstruct radio
signals to and from the antenna(s). Direct line-of-sight operation is always best.
◗ Install the OWS away from microwave ovens or other devices operating in the 2.4 GHz range.
◗ Install the OWS away from other possible source of 2.4 GHz WLAN interference, such as cordless
phones, home surveillance equipment, frequency-hopping (FHSS) and DSSS Local Area Network
transceivers, electronic news gathering video links, radars, amateur radios, land mobile radio services,
local government sties (for example, law enforcement), fixed microwave services, local TV
transmission, and private fixed point transmitters.
Site Surveys
Due to variations in product configuration, placement, and the physical environment, each installation is
unique. Before installing the Strix OWS, we recommend that you perform a site survey to determine the
optimum placement of the product to achieve the best possible range, coverage and network performance.
Consider the following points:
◗ Data Rates—Sensitivity and range are inversely proportional to data bit rates. The maximum wireless
range is achieved at the lowest data rate. A decrease in receiver threshold sensitivity occurs as wireless
data increases.
◗ Antenna Type and Placement—Using the correct antenna configuration is a critical factor when trying
to maximize wireless range. As a general rule, the range increases in proportion to the antenna height
and gain.
◗ Physical Environment—Clear or open areas offer better wireless coverage than closed or filled areas.
The less cluttered the operating environment, the greater the range.
◗ Obstructions—A physical obstruction, such as a building or tree, can block or hinder wireless services.
Avoid placing antennas in locations where there is an obstruction between the sending and receiving
antennas.
◗ Building Materials—Wireless penetration is influenced by the building materials used in construction.
For example, drywall construction permits greater range than concrete blocks. Steel and alloy materials
can be a barrier to wireless signals.
◗ Diversity—The Strix OWS supports RX diversity, which requires two antennas.
Power Source
The Strix OWS supports both AC and DC input power.

Installing Antennas
This section provides instructions for installing and connecting antennas. The antennas shown in this section
are a representative sample only and are provided as a guideline for installation—your specific antenna(s)
may be different, in which case refer to the instructions provided with the antenna(s).
Antenna Warning
Antennas must be installed by a trained professional installer only.
Do not locate any antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where the antenna can come into contact with such circuits. When
installing antennas, take extreme care not to come into contact with such electrical
circuits, as they can cause serious injury or death.
For the correct installation and grounding of antennas, please refer to national and local
codes (for example, US:NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, Article 810; in Canada:
Canadian Electrical Code, Section 54).
Applying Power Before an Antenna is Connected
Do not apply power to the transmitter until the antenna is connected, otherwise
permanent damage may result.
Strong RF Fields are Present
When the unit is operation, avoid standing directly in front of the antenna. Strong RF
fields are present when the transmitter is ON.
Notes About Antenna Installations
Read the following notes before installing any antenna.
◗ The system installer should always ensure that antenna radiation patterns do not overlap.
◗ A sector antenna should point towards the center of the sector covered by the antenna.
◗ Fixed point-to-point backhaul antennas should point towards the desired Strix Systems Access/One®
Network device intended for the backhaul connection.
◗ Unused antenna ports must be terminated with a 50 ohm terminator.
◗ Only antennas approved by Strix Systems (or equivalent) may be used with the Access/One® Network
Outdoor Wireless System (OWS).
◗ Only one antenna may be used on each antenna port.
◗ When installing antennas that require mounting brackets and U-bolts, it is easier to loosely attach the
U-bolts to the brackets, then slide the completed antenna assembly over the pole (instead of holding
the assembly against the pole and attaching each U-bolt separately—mounting brackets are shipped
with the U-bolts pre-assembled. For this reason, do not install an omni antenna at the top of the pole
before installing any directional/sectored antennas that will reside below it.
OWS Field Installation
OWS Field Installation
◗ Depending on the selected antenna(s) for your application, it may be necessary to configure the output
power of your OWS 2400 or OWS 3600 product. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure the output
power is set correctly for the chosen antenna(s). To set the output power, go to Appendix I: Setting the
Output Power on page 32. Operation of the OWS 2400 or OWS 3600 in a manner other than as
represented here is a violation of FCC rules.

Grounding the OWS Enclosure
This section provides instructions for grounding the OWS enclosure.
Grounding Caution
You must ALWAYS install an external grounding wire. The ground connection must be
complete before connecting power to the OWS enclosure—a simple continuity check
between the enclosure and the ground termination point can confirm this. Grounding of
the OWS must comply with National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, unless local
codes in your area take precedence over the NEC code.
Parts Required
◗ Ground wire assembly (with ring terminator)—must be 18 gauge AWG wire, or greater.
Tools Required
◗ 3/16 inch nut wrench
◗ Wire stripper (if necessary)
1. Connect the ground wire to the
ground terminal on the bottom of
the OWS enclosure.
Make sure the lock washer is in
place and that the nut is securely
fastened.
2. Connect the other end of the
ground wire to a grounding strap
attached to a grounded surface,
such as a cold water pipe (or
other suitable ground termination
point, compliant with NEC and
local standards).
On pole-mounted OWS
enclosures, if the pole (or pole
stand) is already grounded, you
may use one of these items as the
ground termination point.

Appendix I: Setting the Output Power
Use the following procedure to set the output (transmit) power for the chosen antenna:
1. Establish a Telnet connection with the selected wireless module (radio).
2. Log in to the radio.
3. Type the command get power.
The system displays the current power settings for the selected radio.
If the radio is set to the desired power setting, no further action is required and you can log out,
otherwise go to Step 4. The following list shows the available power settings:
◗ Full – sets the maximum (normal) transmit power. This is the default setting.
◗ Half – sets the transmit power to a fractional half of the full power.
◗ Quarter – sets the transmit power to a fractional quarter of the full power.
◗ Eighth – sets the transmit power to a fractional eighth of the full power.
◗ Minimum – sets the transmit power to its minimum.
4. To set the power output for the selected radio, type the command set power and append the desired
setting to the command. For example, to set the output power to minimum, type set power min. Or,
to set the output power to one quarter, type set power quarter.
When the command is entered, the system displays the new power setting automatically. However, if
you need to verify the output power setting for any radio, use the command get power. The following
graphic shows the output power for a radio being changed from full to one quarter.
